A few words on ClickPoint…

The D3200 uses a number of new elements to create a fast and flexible navigation system that allows you to quickly select any parameter. These elements include:

•ClickPoint system

•Cursor “Compass” keys

•ENTER key

•Tab Page>/YES key

•<Tab Page /No key

•VALUE WHEEL and +/- keys

•The Knob Matrix

ClickPoint is basically a fingertip trackball that allows any displayed parameter to be selected by simply moving the on-screen cursor over the parameter and pressing down. Using ClickPoint is not the only way to move the cursor around the screen…

Four cursor “Compass” keys representing UP, DOWN, LEFT and RIGHT surround ClickPoint. These keys can also be used to select any displayed parameter.

Finally, the <Tab Page/No and Tab Page>/Yes keys allow you to change Tab Pages within the display, or answer YES/NO in an open dialog box without using any cursor action at all. Once selected, the parameter will appear with a dark “box” outline. Parameters can be adjusted using the VALUE WHEEL as well as the + and – keys for precise incremental control.

The Knob Matrix can be assigned to any of a number of parameters – EQ, FX, Pan, Send Levels, etc. The Knob Matrix knobs can work in either a “Jump” or “Match” mode – allowing you to optimize the controllers for a custom feel…
